@profsamperry Sorry, not the best person for learning resources, but I recommend the Anaconda distribution and the PyCharm IDE. Numpy is essential, Pandas will likely be helpful for more complex data analysis, and Matplotlib is good for plots/visualizations. All have good documentation.
One other point about cosmology: If you believe God is remaking the world through Christ, if you believe in New Creation, you really don't care very much about holding on to the old order of things.
@scott_m_coley Very much not a fan of Ham, but I’ll be honest this kind of surprises me. Maybe it shouldn’t, knowing more than a little creationist history, but it does.
@quasiaesthete Been thinking about something kind of related: how boundaries can be important, yet we also ought to give sacrificially to others of our time and energy. I feel like the line there is a matter of wisdom, and it probably falls a little outside of one’s comfort zone.
